About Foxeys Hangout

Peninsula regulars know to arrive early at Foxeys Hangout for walk-in deck tables over sloping vines. Spontaneous visitors drop in for standing tastings inside the working production room—swirling pours right beside the fermenting tanks. For lunch, diners hand the reins over to the kitchen for the nine-dish spread: warm bread dipped in dukkah, mushroom sausage rolls with spicy relish, and roasted quail with a glass of estate pinot noir.

  • Production Floor Tastings: Informal, ten-dollar wine flights poured standing up directly in the room where the wine is made.
  • Chef's Sharing Feast: A generous nine-course chef's sharing menu featuring mushroom sausage rolls, ocean trout, and quail.
  • Vineyard Terrace Views: Sprawling outdoor deck and terrace tables overlooking rows of sloping Red Hill vines.
